justnzane Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 This is what happens when your team is 5-8. I'll go with Dustin Hoffman as Louis Dega in 1973's Papillion. Nice guy, one of my college buddies was his personal asst. a while back. I'd actually have to go into his voice acting roles, I loved him as Shifu on Kung Fu Panda.

The Jokeman Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Very Tough choice. I'm voting for the tv movie Death of a Salesman only because I loved the play. Yet his best performance might have been Rain Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steely Dan Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 From Tootsie; Michael Dorsey: Are you saying that nobody in New York will work with me? George Fields: No, no, that's too limited... nobody in Hollywood wants to work with you either. I can't even set you up for a commercial. You played a *tomato* for 30 seconds - they went a half a day over schedule because you wouldn't sit down. Michael Dorsey: Of course. It was illogical. George Fields: YOU WERE A TOMATO. A tomato doesn't have logic. A tomato can't move. Michael Dorsey: That's what I said. So if he can't move, how's he gonna sit down, George? I was a stand-up tomato: a juicy, sexy, beefsteak tomato. Nobody does vegetables like me. I did an evening of vegetables off-Broadway. I did the best tomato, the best cucumber... I did an endive salad that knocked the critics on their ass.

Makes you wonder why Sydney Pollack did'nt do more acting. Tootsie is my favorite Dustin Hoffman film although it is difficult to pick just one. This excerpt is great, but let's see the whole thing..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 His best acting was in Kramer vs. Kramer. My favorite would have to be The Graduate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The supporting cast in that film was as good as any movie I can think of. Pollack, Bill Murray, Dabney Coleman, Charles Durning, the guy who played the over-the-hill soap star etc., etc. All hysterical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the eff can you forget to add Jessica Lange and Terri Garr to that list!! Anyhoo, [Dorothy Michaels' screen test] Rita: I'd like to make her look a little more attractive, how far can you pull back? Cameraman: How do you feel about Cleveland? Rita: Knock it off. ____________________________ Jeff: [michael's half dressed as Dorothy, getting ready for a dinner with Julie] What do you mean you don't have anything to wear? Michael Dorsey: She has seen me in all of these! Jeff: She hasn't seen you in that white dress Michael Dorsey: What, this? [holds up a formal white dress] Jeff: Yeah. Michael Dorsey: You cannot wear white to a casual dinner. It's too dressy. Jeff: Can't you wear pants? Michael Dorsey: Pants? [pats the fake butt he's wearing then wiggles his finger] Jeff: What about this thing? [holds up a striped dress] Michael Dorsey: No. I don't have the right shoes for it, I don't like the way the horizontal lines make me look to hippy, and it cuts me across the bust. Jeff: [slight pause] I think we're getting into a weird area here. ___________________________________________ Sandy: A guy named les is sending you flowers? Michael Dorsey: Yes. He's a friend of mine. He can't eat candy he's diebetic. Sandy: Why is he thanking you for a lovely night in front of the fire. Michael Dorsey: [long pause] My minds a blank. Sandy: Micheal, are you gay? Michael Dorsey: In what sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
